Both front doors have faded to Vauxhall pink. One rear door has had a flirtation with a yellow bollard. The infotainment screen is dead. The timing chain rattles on start up. It's doing a regen every 100 miles. Need I go on?

....but being a plate 66 plate car it has seen less revolutions of mother earth than the 16 plate French invader.

How much do you want for it?

I've no idea, I'll see what they offer. It's trade in value on auto trader is around £3K, I'll be lucky to see half of that.

Having said that, look at the price of this  The nearest equivalent I can find

And autotrader reckon this is a fair price. I reckon it's well too expensive

Save that on your phone, and show it to him when he offers you £2.50!

Sigh.......why is nothing simple.....

If it's running ok, just keep the bloody thing and get the little niggles sorted.

If you go for it, insist they make sure its got the latest software on the infotainment system, they are a bit temperamental at best, and need to be on the absolute latest release.

Check everything works, usual French electrics stuff

Thanks, Mark. Does it update OTA?

No, hence why you want it doing as part of the sales agreement

Change of heart, Mick. I'd probably be creating more problems than I already have. Plenty of time to decide, despite Opti saying my time is limited.

I think it's wise to let this pass.

I'm guessing the money in column (Astra) and the money out column ( several months older Frenchie) are too far apart.

[Sir Tigger KC]

When they first brought the Kadjar out I thought it was a nice looking car, but thought it was the size of a VW Touareg or Audi Q7, so when I saw one in the flesh I thought  "Is that it?"   

I think you've done the right thing giving this a swerve Uncle STEMO. You're never to old to need that little smile when you plant your right foot down and you weren't going get that with a 1.6 diesel.
